With $70 is looks like we'd be laying 11 or 12:1 which is at the top end of the 5-10 rule for set mining odds. Seems reasonable to aim to make calling with any pocket pair not worth it but I'm curious what people's thoughts are.
Depends how conservative we are, how difficult our opponent is, our incapability of folding an overpair in a small SPR pot, our position, etc.
I'm conservative, so if I'm going to setup a small SPR where I don't feel I'll be able to fold an overpair, I typically aim for 8:1 IO. This is right on setmining odds and of course offers even worse for other hands, and of course setminers will even have a horrendous time (as I'm not stacking off with JJ on an Axx flop when they flop their set, I'll beat them sometimes when the flop their set, etc.).
But this is admittedly super conservative, so if you're more comfortable offering better IO then that's up to you. But here we'll be OOP to a difficult player, so I'm not so sure we want to offer too liberal of IO.
